IMHO, we need more pre-WW2 shooters. A shooter game with primitive rifles or even muskets would be most awesome. Playing in the times of Rifles and Bayonets, or even in the Shot and Pike times would be fabulous.

This doesn't apply to shooters alone. RPGs with low-tech gunpowder based weapons or their analogues are similarly scarce.

I already see how "fun" would a shooter with muskets be...

You shoot one guy and then reload your weapon for the next 30-45 seconds.

Also remember that those days were the only time when firearms were a prestigious matter. You stand still, ready to face and bear being shot and expect the same from your opponent.

There was a Civil War mod for Operation Flashpoint. It was quite fun, except for the moments where it randomly stopped working correctly for some reason.

Depending on the age.
In the time of muskets you would fire faster than with the early rifle, but accuracy is worse.
In the times of shot and pike, you're somewhat more helpless due to the lack of bayonets and depend on the pikemen for protection against the cavalry.

A melee-focused FPS that doesn't revolve around kicking enemies onto spikes or clicking the counterattack button at the correct time would be cool.

Age of Chivalry was pretty fun for awhile.



I know it's not an FPS, but Blade of Darkness was a lot of fun. Great technical melee combat against some pretty tough AIs that dodge, block, and try to circle you.
